WHO WILL WIN?





Friday, April 11, 2008


Sri Subramanya temple

Four years ago Mahendra Singh Dhoni was a mere novelty in Indian domestic cricket, a long-haired young man from Ranchi who liked to hit the ball as hard as humanly possible. Already captain of the Twenty20 and ODI teams, he on Friday, became the first wicketkeeper to lead India in a Test match.

This was the first time since 1990 that India played a Test at home without both Sachin Tendulkar and Kumble.

Sachin Record Tendulkar



Tendulkar is closing in on Brian Lara’s record of 11953 career runs in Test cricket and it would appear he has aims to complete before heading into retirement.

The 34-year-old is disappointed to have so far failed to win the World Cup and has hinted he would look to play on to 2011.

''I am enjoying my cricket at the moment, but don't want to think too much into the future,'' Tendulkar told IBN Lokmat.

''Winning the World Cup is certainly still an unfulfilled dream and I would love to play in it.

''But 2011 is still some way away, and I don't want to look that far and commit myself to anything."
